The 27th of March will see one of this year’s most sought-after releases, as Paradise founder and Hot Creations head Jamie Jones teams up with long-term friend and Paradise resident Alan Fitzpatrick on Fairytale Frequency. The stunning two-tracker is the debut collaboration from two of electronic music’s most in-demand talents and, as expected, the end result is an outstanding offering that showcases both artists at their best.

The lead track Fairytale Frequency instantly showcases the bespoke sounds of both artists. From the get-go we witness the tell-tale signature of Jamie in the tribal drum patterns and whispering female vocal hooks, whilst Alan’s trademark club sound comes through in the pulsing, acid-twinged lead synth. Sundancing rounds things off. Soulful and soothing, the track is reminiscent of Hot Creation’s early days with it’s warming bassline and deep, emotive vocals, as gentle hats converge on light kicks to form a Baleric-inspired closing cut that tugs deeply on the heartstrings.

As a world-renowned DJ and producer, head of Hot Creations and founder of the global Paradise event series, Jamie Jones has etched out a legacy on electronic music that few can attest to. His personally curated Paradise series offers an international showcase of house and techno’s most recognisable artists. A long term Paradise resident, Alan Fitzpatrick has risen to the upper echelons of electronic music with a constant stream of outstanding releases on the likes of Drumcode and his very own We Are The Brave label.

House mainstay Darius Syrossian is back with more of his dancefloor dynamite. This time the Moxy Muzik boss finds himself on Griffintown Records with two new gems that come after many years of laying down no frills but high impact tunes on the days finest labels. Darius said at the beginning of the year, 2020 will be the year he goes back to his roots of making House music, inspired by that tough 90s Chicago house sound, which is where he made his name. Over the last 2 weeks the release has received huge support on BBC Radio 1 from Pete Tong, Danny Howard, and Black Madonna. 

Rouge Disco is a colourful and playful track with big disco loops and slamming drums. Explosive vocal stabs and colourful chords, splashy hi hats and funk bass riffs all make sure this one will work the floor into a real lather. Diva is then a big and full flavour wedge of house music with emotive cries, bass stabs that tease and plenty of tension building that will have people in raptures. 

These tracks both show a different side to Syrossian with his usual high class results.

Label boss Danny Howard is back on signature imprint, Nothing Else Matters with brand new single; ‘Pumpin' including a peak-time remix from heavyweight DJ and producer Archie Hamilton. With his last outing on the label, 'Beat Control', soaring up the charts, Danny is welcomed back with new single ‘Pumpin' which blends hip swinging hats, crisp and energetic percussion, infectious basslines and percolating rhythms alongside a cleverly reworked hypnotic vocal sample of Pamela Fernandez’ ‘Kickin’ In The Beat’. Archie Hamilton’s remix completes the package; the dancefloor focused roller switches things up, diving deeper into headier territory with a more melodic take on the original offering blissful beats, atmospheric percussion, robust snares and a snaking bassline which serves as the groove’s motif.

Following the release of If It’s Love earlier this year, Mark Knight follows up with another vocally-charged anthem-in-the-making Tonight, which features from the UK’s Chenai and US mainstay Mr. V.  

While If It’s Love was a record with its roots very much in the classic house sounds of the 90s, Tonight takes inspiration from the brisk, looping, filtered house music of the early 00s, with Chenai’s urgent, soaring vocals beautifully juxtaposed with Mr. V’s trademark NYC drawl. 

Like Mark, house music veteran Mr. V fondly remembers a time when the music was built heavily on traditional song structures and lots of heart and soul. DJs played whatever it took to get the party going and the music was never predictable, and it is with this spirit and enthusiasm that the NYC artist approaches his feature on Tonight.

Chenai is a London based vocalist, songwriter and producer. Over the last few years she has collaborated with and written for the likes of Hurts, Tensnake and Gorgon City, toured relentlessly and performed at some of the world’s biggest music festival, including Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, Benicassim, V-fest, Glastonbury, Tomorrowland and Parklife. 

Mark Knight’s musical history is entrenched is soul and hip-hop.  Growing up in the late 80’s and early 90’s, every evening was spent by the radio listening the shows of Froggy, Greg Edwards and a very young Pete Tong, either taping music or writing titles down from the likes of The BB&Q and Leroy Burgess through to the mind- blowing productions of DJ Eddie F.  

It was then through the education and vision of DJs like Paul Trouble Anderson, Bobby & Steve and Tony Humphries that Mark started to make the connection from the Swing Beat craze at the time, towards the Soulful House sound that was coming through, and thus a love affair began that has remained with him throughout his career.

Tonight is the latest release marking a new musical direction for Mark Knight that began with If It’s Love and will continue throughout 2020.
